30 Days Wild, part 1 | Diversions in Natural History
https://diversionsinnaturalhistory.wordpress.com/2015/06/16/30-days-wild-part-1
Diversions in Natural History. 30 Days Wild, part 1. Have been running a campaign. To encourage everyone to get out in nature during June, so it’s been fun to record what I’ve been doing each day. Of course, with a dog you tend to get out in nature every day, but there’s always something new emerging and new things to see, and there have been quite a few things I’ve done in nature this month that haven’t involved walking the dog. After yesterday’s National Garden BioBlitz. Day 2 http:/ t.co/Hr04UiQ5i3.

Insect rambles: March 2014
http://insectrambles.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Wandering around, photographing insects. Monday, 24 March 2014. Another expedition this week, venturing further north than I've ever been before - to Wick, Caithness, in the very top right corner of Scotland. Being mainly from the southwest, I'm always taken aback by the sheer size of Scotland, and even after flying into Inverness there was still a two-hour drive north to get to Wick itself. My recording footprint, up to the 20/3/2014. And http:/ bit.ly/beewatch. With only three British populations, this...

Adventures of an aromatherapy beekeeper. Skip to primary content. Skip to secondary content. Welcome to the luxury bee hotel. July 14, 2016. I love to watch the bees hard at work in our garden, but often think they deserve a holiday. So I was thrilled to get an email from Fiona Lane of Taylors of Harrogate about the world’s first luxury bee hotel. Welcome to the poshest insect residence where tired bees can hang up their wings and enjoy a five-star overnight stay in an indulgent spa. Different bees speci...

Adventures of an aromatherapy beekeeper. Skip to primary content. Skip to secondary content. July 31, 2016. The queen cells had been torn down. A worker crawled out of a gaping hole in the side of a cell as I wondered who had given the order a new queen or rebel workers? I went forwards and backwards again through the frames in the hope of finding her and making an artificial swarm in the nuc that was now conveniently empty. The queen was nowhere to be found, although I could see the nest had doubled...

Adventures of an aromatherapy beekeeper. Skip to primary content. Skip to secondary content. August 21, 2016. Earlier in summer the weather was lovely for ducks, and also frogs. While the pitter-patter of raindrops on the hive roof kept my bees indoors, the tadpoles enjoyed every splish and splosh in their buckets. 8221; he asked, and I replied, “Don’t worry, apparently only a very small number will survive.”. Why hadn’t I thought of this earlier? The frog pond is like a deep well with earth, sludge and ...
